The Year I Was the Other Woman To Myself novel Chapter 478

Penelope and Natalie both sighed. The two were such masterful performers they could sometimes fool even their own mothers.

Without a doubt, they had Laura hidden somewhere in the house.

“Mommy, you’re back!” Kristin was the first to run over, throwing herself into Natalie’s arms.

“Mommy, I missed you so much!” Hubert immediately dropped the watering can and rushed to hug Penelope.

“Mommy, you look even prettier today than you did yesterday!”

“Mommy, I love you even more today than I did yesterday!”

Natalie snorted. “Whenever you two get this sweet, it means you’ve gotten into trouble.”

Kristin shook her head vigorously. “No, we haven’t! Don’t accuse us, Mommy!”

“Then what were you doing out so early this morning?”

Kristin’s eyes darted around. “Just playing.”

Penelope smiled. “The grandmas and grandpas outside said you went to buy us breakfast?”

“Uh…” Hubert’s eyes shifted. “We forgot.”

“Alright, forgotten is forgotten. I’ll go make you two some breakfast.”

Penelope headed for the kitchen. It was hardly breakfast anymore, seeing as it was almost noon.

She and Natalie took turns cooking, and since neither was particularly skilled, their kids had a unique perspective. While other children complained about the food at preschool, theirs thought it was a gourmet feast.

As a result, they adored going to preschool, never missing a day, rain or shine, and had made plenty of friends.

During the meal, for once, neither of them complained that the food was bad. They ate with gusto.

“Mommy, can I take my bowl and eat in my room?” Hubert asked.

Penelope knew exactly what he was planning. “Go ahead.”

As Hubert got up, he shot a discreet look at Kristin.
